Sources have informed The Guardian that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is considering a fresh strategy for the upcoming season. The Daily Mail suggests that the review conducted by Ratcliffe signals the end of Ten Hag’s tenure.
A list of potential successors is already in the works, featuring Kieran McKenna, Mauricio Pochettino, Thomas Tuchel, and Thomas Frank as possible candidates to take the helm at Old Trafford.
Manchester United is believed to have reached out to McKenna, but they are not alone in their interest. Chelsea and Brighton are also vying for the 38-year-old, who has become highly sought-after due to his achievements at Ipswich Town.
Ten Hag’s appointment was expected to herald a significant uplift in the club’s performance, and there were moments when this seemed to be materializing.
In his inaugural season, United secured the Carabao Cup and secured third place in the league. However, this year has been marred by lackluster performances.
Tensions between Ten Hag and some players have cast a pall over Old Trafford. With Ratcliffe at the reins, there is hope that the club’s football operations will undergo a renaissance.
